Good question. Samba-2 has the encrypted password stuff and I guess it
would also build on MPE/iX. However, there is still one issue open for
discussion... On Unix, you need to have a separate password respository
for Samba, as far as I understand (/etc/passwd for Unix, and some kind
of /etc/smbpasswd for Samba). This seems to be due to different and uni-
directional hashing algorithms. Would we like to see this on MPE, too?
